The Rainbow Family

“It was an Israeli regional Rainbow Gathering in the Negev Desert, back in November 1997 (near the moshav Ein Yahav). The place was incredibly beautiful. It was a couple days before the full moon during the evening food circle when someone came to the gathering with an ultra light plane and flew over the main camp a couple of times.
Later he landed his plane nearby and joined us all at the main fire. It was a strange, interesting and happy moment that nobody expected. But nice things like this always happen on the Rainbow Gatherings.“
